ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan Friday said his party will come on roads if concession was given to Sharif brothers and Ishaq Dar.
Imran Khan claimed that even the US President Donald Trump would not be able to rescue the Sharifs for looting the national wealth, as he came up with documents, showing that Finance Minister Ishaq Dar owned 11 offshore companies and one of them ran 52 villas in Dubai.
He told a media conference here at his Banigala residence that these documents revealed that besides Dar?s two sons, owning Rs10 billion tower each, they ran companies, which also had Hussain Nawaz and Muhammad Safdar as business person and general cleaner, respectively.
The PTI chairman said all knew that Dar?s father had a cycle shop and that he was a hard worker, for whom he had a lot of respect. But Imran insisted that it was cruelty to take away what belonged to others.
Imran also said they had collected more evidence against Foreign Minister Khawaja Asif, who was a federal minister while legal consultant in Dubai as well, having an Iqama. He added that the PTI?s Usman Dar would soon hold a separate news conference on this matter.
The PTI chief said he was waiting for the promised movement by Nawaz Sharif but his brother Shahbaz Sharif had already gone to Saudi Arabia to kneel before the princes over there, whereas Nawaz was also about to leave for the kingdom. He believed that efforts for another NRO were under way but warned that he would bring public on roads in such case. Even, he said, Trump would not rescue the Sharif brothers now. He alleged that Nawaz Sharif?s ideology was corruption on which all were one. ?They are trying to save their looted money and not democracy,? he charged.
Referring to Nawaz Sharif?s statements, he alleged that Nawaz was objecting to the fact that like in the past, the judiciary and the military were not rescuing him. ?Not I, Nawaz has been the beloved one of Ziaul Haq, who nurtured him and a brigadier gave him victory in Punjab,? he claimed.
Imran alleged that Nawaz wanted to defame the judiciary and that was why they were issuing aggressive statements. He urged the Supreme Court to initiate contempt of court proceedings against Nawaz, as the kind of language he was using had never been used in the past. The PTI chairman emphasised that either the contempt law be used against Nawaz or it should be done away with, if it were to be used against the weak and the poor.
Imran alleged that Nawaz looted the nation?s Rs300 billion and took it away and in return, presented a Qatari letter in the apex court. He claimed the real evidence and money trail of it was in Hudaibya Paper Mills, about which they had new evidence while they awaited the detailed judgement of the apex court bench.
Imran contended that the criminal case, once closed, could be reopened on surfacing of new evidence. About Dar, he said that he met Nawaz in 1980 and then he became millionaire and then billionaire and then possessed trillions, whereas he did not pay income tax from 1981-2002. And then, he showed Rs9.1 million in 2007 and there was an increase of 800 percent in his assets till 2013.
Imran said that in order to avoid taxes, Dar showed payment of Rs170 million to Hajveri charity, which was never made, whereas there are two towers worth Rs10 billion each in the name of his two sons and none knew from where they got money for this. Imran, with documents in his hands, which were shared with media afterwards, said Dar owned 11 companies and one of these companies was HDS Estates Limited, owning 52 villas, whereas they received massive amounts from Oman, England, Switzerland, Turkey and Canada which clearly meant they had business over there as well. He asked Dar to explain how he managed to collect that much money and alleged that Dar was Nawaz Sharif?s frontman and Nawaz feared that like in the past, when he had submitted an affidavit before a magistrate on money-laundering, he would again reveal more. He added that this was the reason why Dar was kept abroad and even ministerial post was not taken back from him and this was leading to more doubts and apprehensions.
Imran said Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi struck an LNG agreement with Qatar worth $15 billion, which was not presented in the Parliament and asked how could a contract of public money be kept a secret. Imran alleged the Sharifs had their frontmen: Dar in Dubai, Saifur Rehman in Qatar, Hussain Nawaz in Saudi Arabia and Hassan Nawaz in England and Seed Sheikh in the United States.
The PTI chief said that all were one to cover up their corruption and referred to the Multan metro bus project and noted that the Chinese regular had unearthed corruption, whereas Pakistan?s Securities and Exchange Commission was silent thereon. He wondered what would be the fate of other projects and cited the example of Orange train project of Rs200 billion. When asked for his comment on nominating disqualified Jehangir Tareen?s son Ali Tareen for bye-election in NA-154, Imran said it would have hurt Geo and Jang Group?s Mir Shakil-ur-Rahman as he wanted to save the Sharifs.
However, Imran defended Ali?s nomination and said this was no family politics, alleging family politics was being done by Sharifs.
Our correspondent adds: A spokesman of Ishaq Dar vehemently rejected claims made by Imran Khan and said that he did not own any assets abroad.
In a statement, the spokesman said Ishaq Dar does not own any assets, companies or properties abroad. He said Dar purchased a house in Dubai on instalments, which he gifted to his children after payment of some instalments. He said the remaining instalments were paid by his children. He said all the details have been duly declared in the returns submitted to the Election Commission of Pakistan.
The spokesman said Hudaibya Paper Mills case was thrown out by the Lahore High Court previously. Recently, he said, the Supreme Court has also rejected a reference filed by the NAB to reopen the case. He said repeated reference to the case is nothing but disrespect of the courts.
The spokesman said Dar does not own even a single company abroad. He said he was a tax non-resident from 2002 to 2008. Neither before nor after that time, he held any interest in any company. He said the allegation of the HDS Tower in Dubai being owned by Senator Dar?s sons is concocted and a big lie. The tower is not owned by Senator Dar?s sons, who only acted as developers/builders of the whole tower by utilising funds provided by buyers/owners. There are approximately 300 buyers/owners of apartments/units.
Similarly, he said, the rent-a-car business is being managed by Senator Dar?s sons who do not own the cars but in fact rent them on behalf of owners of the cars. The spokesman said Dar has always regularly paid his taxes and filed his tax returns with the FBR.
The full tax record was also presented to the JIT and the Supreme Court of Pakistan in the Panama Paperscase. Therefore, he said, the allegation relating to non-payment of taxes or non-filing of tax returns is a complete fabrication.
